Furniture Now!

A therapeutic training centre is to be provided where people who are dealing with a severe and enduring mental health problem or some other condition can receive training in the decorative arts to refurbish second-hand furniture, make jewellery from recycled products and access employment related skills like CV building and interview practice.

The centre will also be developed into a facility that produces a useful product and provides supported employment opportunities for the service users bringing dignity and independence to a group of people who have been formally trapped by the benefits system.
